Hi, this is my first chameleon, Maggie. She is a veiled chameleon, but I don’t know how old she is (other than young!) can anyone tell me? Also, the pet shop thought she was female... just wondering if anyone can confirm?

Hope you don’t mind me asking... but why are they not recommended?
Because theyre not made for chameleons, their claws can get caught in the fibres too and its not really a natural replica of their real environment. When designing their cage, try to think what a jungle is like and try to replicate it. Lots of horizontal and diagonal sticks and vines are good and live plants are even better (y)

Ok thanks, that’s a good point. I have 5 real plants in there right now... all chameleon safe. I was reluctant to get artificial but needed them on the short term for more cover... will be replacing as soon as I can.
